The Scriptures 1998

Acts 13:3-8 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

3. Then having fasted and prayed, and having laid hands on them, they sent them away.

4. So they, having been sent out by the Set-apart Spirit, went down to Seleukeia, and from there they sailed to Cyprus.

5. And having come into Salamis, they proclaimed the word of Elohim in the congregations of the Yehuḏim. And they also had Yoḥanan as an attendant.

6. And having passed through all the island to Paphos, they found a certain magician, a false prophet, a Yehuḏite whose name was Bar-Yehoshua,

7. who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of understanding. This man, having called for Barnaḇah and Sha’ul, earnestly sought to hear the word of Elohim.

8. But Elumas the magician – for so his name is translated – withstood them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the belief.
